Default Stole someones pic! (check out their wheels!!)



Hope the owner doesnt mind me posting this, but hey, it was on his myspace.

All i can say is gold rims never looked so good to me. This is from someone who FIRMLY believed gold rims belonged to blue cars only.

Yeah they definately look good on Habinero. I think it would look even better if they were slightly darker.

Looks good but what's with the weird toe-in on the front wheel? Or are my eyes deceiving me?

My Si is like that to. I've seen quite a few like that actually. Apparently that's the way they come.

There is an HFP kit on the car.
Yes I didn't armor all the wheels because it needs to be washed.

That pic is directly in the sun and makes the wheels appear much lighter than they actually are (the car too). The wheels are actually bronze not gold. They have a great metallic look and appear different in different lighting just like the habi red.

There is no toe on the front wheels. It is just the angle of the pics. I will see if I can take some more in some lower lighting.

No there isnt, you do not have the HFP kit for suspension which is what we were talking about. Id have to be blind not to see the skirts and lips.

Ok because when you say HFP kit you could mean either and I thought you meant the lip kit.

I see what your saying. That is why I quoted the phrase that the guy said. He said it could use a drop, and then I replied with: the HFP kit would be good.

I like the way it looks. It's original which is sometimes hard to find these days.
